A positive mind anticipates happiness, joy, health, and a successful outcome of every situation and action. Positive thinking is a mental attitude that admits into the mind thoughts, words, and images that are conductive to growth, expansion and success. It is a mental attitude that expects good and favorable results. It is quite common to hear people say: “Think positive!”, to someone who feels down and worried. Most of people do not take these words seriously, as they do not know what they really mean, or do not consider them as useful and effective. Not everyone accepts or believes in positive thinking. Some consider the subject as just nonsense, and others scoff at people who believe and accept it.
Positive and negative thinking are both contagious. All of us affect, in one way or another, the people we meet. This happens instinctively and on a subconscious level, through thoughts and feelings, and through body language. People sense our aura and are affected by our thoughts, and vice versa. People are more disposed to help us if we are positive, and they dislike and avoid anyone who have negative thinking.
In reality, there is no clear answer yet on whether positive thinking can keep you healthy or happy in any relationship or in love or job. However, emotion can affects us, but still there is no one can has a 100% positive thinking.
We need to have a positive thinking in most of our thoughts. I think if we can increase our positive thinking, we will be much better in our life. Because if we think only negative, we can not succeed in our life. So, we should work hard to improve our positive thinking to be happier and at the same time in good health. The more we thinking positive, the more we enjoy and love our life.
In conclusion, I would like to encourage people who thinking negatively, to start change their ways or thoughts to positive thinking. Then, they will see the different in their health, love, relationship, and work how is going to change. So, we need to think positive because there is power from positive thinking.

As I read in the Laughing Guru, laughing is very important to our health. We all want to be healthy and in good shape.Many people don’t know how to laugh or even why to laugh? Laughter is a funny thing. Can makes people smile and helps them to be healthier and well-being at the same time.

So, we need to laugh, even if there is no reason to laugh about, but still can do something.
The more we laugh for no reason, the more we will have the ability to fight for any disease can attack our body. Kataria claimed, “Patients with multiple sclerosis who laughed regularly,” “had a lot of improvement,” “Asthma patients-- they have benefits.” (84). We can improve our immunity by laughing. We just need to give ourselves chance to practice laughter yoga. And we are going to get better. Sometimes, I laugh without no reason, and when I stop laughing I feel relief, and in good mood. So, what about people who have diseases and there is a little hopes to survive? There is no doubt that 100% from these people will get benefit from laughing. I have an example for that. I have an interview with my cousin who used to has a cancer in his blood (Leukemia). Whenever I see him, he always laughing even that he knows he can die at any time, but he still laughing. there is always smile in his face. Sometimes I see him laughing for no reason, and I never ask him why he laughing. He used to takes a chemotherapy, and we all know how painful this medication. Anyway, after he finished taking his medication, he started to feels better. After he became in good health, I asked him why he was laughing for no reason. He answered me:“Because I know that I can die at anytime, but at the same time when I feel depressed, I start to laugh then my mood change suddenly.” This was a great example how laughing can improve our health and makes us feel better.
Laughing can change our mood. It can change from negative mood to positive mood. When we have any problem in our lives, we feel depressed.

In 2002, Charles Schaefer, a psychologist at Fairleigh Dickinson University, studied how forced laughter affected the state of mind of students. He noted that “adults who act happy for a minute a day are likely to elevate their mood.” (81). We can have a fake laugh for just to feel good. That will helps us to change our mood to positive. Most people are moody, they always up and down from good mood to bad mood. So, by laughing we forget that which mood we were have before we laughed. It is very beneficial to our health and helps us to be happy most of the times.
Laughing can decrease our pressure and stress.We always have a pressure in our life, especially at work, home, and school. We need something to relief this pressure and stress. Laughing is the key because when we laugh, we feel much better and that helps us to be happier and healthy at the same time.

Happiness and Health
Happiness always can cause to a healthy body. We all love to be healthy and in good shape. Happiness can come from laughing. Sound weird, but it is true. Many people don’t know how to laugh or even why to laugh? Laughter is a funny thing. Can makes people smile and helps them to be healthier and well-being at the same time. Also, when people laugh, they exhale more than they inhale. And that is very beneficial to anybody health. I like when Kataria said: “Laughter is a funny thing. Even in the eyes of modern science, it remains mystifying, in part because it is so difficult to study.” (80). Laughter is very beneficial for the whole body. It can makes a person in good mood and high self-esteem. Even without no reason, still makes people feel well-being. We can learn from laughter a lot of things and at the same time it will helps us to be healthier. We can relief the stress we have by laughing, even if there is no reason to laugh about. We can fight for any disease like cancer by laughing. It can impact on the mind influences various functions of the body and makes us healthier. A lot of benefit from laughing. So, we need to laugh, even if there is no reason to laugh about, but still can do something.
Laughter is a funny thing. “ You don’t have to wait for anything to happen-- no jokes, no humor, no comedy required.” “Just laugh.” Kataria said. (80). We need to laugh as much as we can to relief our stress. Life is full of events, and it is mostly not good events. We need to laugh even if there are no jokes, or reason because the more we can laugh, the more we can be healthier. It is very beneficial for our body systems. If we did not laugh enough, we will die earlier because laughing is likes food, we can’t lives without it. In 2002, Charles Schaefer, a psychologist at Fairleigh Dickinson University, studied how forced laughter affected the state of mind of students. He noted that “adults who act happy for a minute a day are likely to elevate their mood.” (81). That is mean if we have a fake laugh, we will be healthier and we will be in good mood. It is very important for every one's to laugh in his/her life because laughing helps us to forget our pain, stress, and pressure. Also, will makes us happier and lives longer.
The more we laugh for no reason, the more we will have the ability to fight for any disease can attack our body. Kataria claimed, “Patients with multiple sclerosis who laughed regularly,” “had a lot of improvement,” “Asthma patients-- they have benefits.” (84). We can improve our immunity by laughing.

Happiness is always a by-product. It is probably a matter of temperament, and for anything I know it may be glandular. But it is not something that can be demanded from life, and if you are not happy you had better stop worrying about it and laugh because the more you laugh, the more well-being you will have. People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness, and they tries to find where is happiness and where is can be the full satisfaction. Indeed, laughing is the power to be happy because if we lives our life only busy seeking for happiness, we will never find. That's why the more we laugh, the more we feel healthier and the more we lives longer. In another way laughter yoga is very important because it leaves people with high oxygen levels in the blood and brain. And helps for providing feelings of vitality, and greater mental clarity.
Although there are a lot of stress in our life, we have to laugh to protect our body from any danger. I think as Kataria told his trainee's that laughter yoga "is based upon the scientific fact that, even if you laugh for the sake of laughing, even if you are pretend laughing, your body cannot tell the difference." (80). If we laugh even fake laugh, we will feel happy because our body can't recognize if that fake laugh or not. So, we have to train ourselves how to laugh.
In conclusion, happiness is related with health, and laughing is very important to by in good health. We only need just to pretend that we laugh or fake laugh. It will helps us to be in good shape and get away our stress for life. And protect us from any disease can attack our body.
